About
Connected to and directly south of Hakai Luxvbalis Conservancy, this conservancy protects the southern portion of Calvert Island. Located on the outer coast near Rivers Inlet, Calvert Island awards its visitors with unpolluted, vacant stretches of white sand beaches. Popular recreational pursuits in the area include boating, whale watching, angling, scuba diving, hiking, wilderness camping, and advanced sea kayaking. The waters surrounding Calvert Island are among the finest in the world for underwater exploration, with exceptional viewing opportunities year-round. Small crafts can find protected anchorage in both Pruth Bay and Safety Cove. Pruth Bay is on the north side of Calvert Island and can be reached via Kwakshua Channel, while Safety Cove is the first protected anchorage on entering Fitz Hugh Sound. Calvert Island Conservancy is located within the Wuikinuxv First Nation traditional territory and is co-managed under an agreement between the Wuikinuxv Nation and the Province of British Columbia. This co-operative management agreement will allow the Wuikinuxv Nation to access land and resources for their use on Calvert Island while achieving conservation and recreation objectives for the area.
